Chapter 193: Self-interest
In political struggles, there is never any traitor or loyalty, only different positions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
From the perspective of China's 5,000-year-old traditional etiquette, Li Fengwu sympathized with the Duan royal family, a royal family praised by the people of Dali was dictated by the Gao family, which really violated the traditional interpretation of "loyalty".
But Li Fengwu's position was that of the Great Song courtiers.
For the ministers, they should worry about the monarch and the Great Song Dynasty.
So even if he sympathized with Duan's family, he resolutely chose Gao Shouchang.
There is not the slightest sense of guilt in my heart for the tiger.
After talking enough nonsense with Gao Shouchang, Li Fengwu said lightly: "Then where is the sincerity of China's public?" β
Gao Shouchang knew that the big Song Xiaofeng in front of him looked young, but in fact, it was very difficult to fool, and if he didn't show some sincerity, he might really make him turn against the water and turn into the hostile camp.
After all, Gao Shouchang didn't really understand Li Fengwu's situation.
In Gao Shouchang's opinion, although the five hundred divine guards who entered the city were terrifying, they did not reach an important point where they could determine a balance, but the remaining five hundred divine guards were different.
Five hundred divine guards and one thousand divine guards are not the same concept at all.
This is just for Dali City at this moment.
On the battlefield of the Song and Jin Wars, the five hundred and one thousand divine guards were only a fraction of the suspense.
This is the sorrow of small countries.
Therefore, Gao Shouchang needed to win over Li Fengwu to ensure that the hostile Five Hundred Divine Guards would not become at least a thousand.
Wooing Li Fengwu, the threat to the existence of the Divine Guard Army became zero.
If Li Fengwu is not wooed, the Divine Guard Army will be five hundred, or even one thousand.
Therefore, Gao Shouchang needs to eliminate this uncertain factor.
Hearing this, he said seriously: "In the Chongsheng Temple, I don't know how much Duan Zhengyan promised you, but according to the calculation of the original appearance, in the Yunnan horse trade between Dali and Shangguo, the Duan family alone can take out five thousand horses is the maximum, if the original phase is coordinated, six thousand horses is no problem." β
Li Fengwu smiled and didn't say anything, just drank tea.
Gao Shouchang sighed.
The young man really has a big appetite, and he is also a little annoyed that Duan Zhengxing is a little annoyed, in order to fool Li Fengwu and Wang Zhiwang, the emperor promised 8,000 horses, and it is likely that this promise raised Li Fengwu's appetite.
I had to sigh: "Benxiang can take out 500 horses in private, but these 500 horses are 10% higher than the market price." β
Speaking of which, it's all about money.
Li Fengwu picked up the melon seeds again, and suddenly remembered that now is the most important thing to talk about, and it is indeed a little ignorant to eat melon seeds again, so he put them back, "Didn't the Chinese duke take advantage of the fire to rob?" β
Gao Shouchang suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, how could he take advantage of the fire to rob him.
Li Fengwu spoke earnestly, with a look of worrying about the country and the people, "I have been in the Song Dynasty for two years, and there is a big war with the Jin country, which has cost a lot of national strength, and now the economy is waiting to be prosperous, it is the time to use money, and in the past two years, there is a great drought in Sichuan and Shaanxi, and the Yellow River is flooded, and the official family can't sleep at night, and 500 horses are one percent higher than the market price. β
No matter how Gao Shouchang looked at it, he felt that what the young man in front of him said was serious, but there was a small abacus in his expression, so he asked tentatively: "What does Li Yuanjun think?" β
Li Fengwu was silent for a while, "Those five hundred horses are the private property of Xiangguo, and there is no need to go through the trade between the two countries, unfortunately, although my Li family only operated a silk and satin cloth business before, now I also want to form a caravan to walk the ancient tea horse road." β
Gao Shouchang suddenly realized that this envoy was not as innocent as he thought.
In this matter, I not only want to make meritorious contributions, but also want to obtain benefits for the family.
That's easy to talk about.
As long as there are interests, there can be collusion.
Happy, he smiled amiably: "Li Yuanjun is willing to revitalize the family business, and he is very willing to help him, but this price is ...... "Private one, of course, the higher it is sold, the better."
Li Fengwu threw out a sentence that made Gao Shouchang feel that this kid must be crazy, "It's one percent lower than the market price." β
Hearing this, Gao Shouchang felt that this kid must be crazy for money.
Li Fengwu said nonchalantly: "Not only that, after my Li family's caravan enters Dali, the trade activities carried out also need the strong support of the Chinese Gong, and the Chinese Gong can not only get strong help tonight, but also on that day above the Great Song Dynasty Hall, the head of the Daqing Palace, there are also people who can speak for the Chinese Gong." β
It means to tell Gao Shouchang, you help me do business, not only will I do my best to help you tonight, but after tonight, you will continue to be your prime minister, and if there is anything in Dali, I will also speak for you in the Great Song Dynasty.
When the time comes, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty will speak for you, at least in many things, your morality and starting point will be tenable.
This has to be said to be a huge olive branch.
Although the Great Song Dynasty is far away from Dali, it is not impossible to interfere in politics, and with the support of the Great Song Dynasty, Gao Shouchang will have one less huge concern in the future.
For example, suppose one day, Gao Shouchang and the Duan clan fell out, and the two sides met each other.
Dali Duan asked for help and sent troops to the Great Song Dynasty.
If the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty did not support Gao Shouchang, he might have sent troops to help - this kind of thing is not uncommon in history.
However, if it is as Li Fengwu said, when the time comes, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty can not only not send troops, but even take in Gao Shouchang after Gao Shouchang's defeat -- just like Nong Zhigao in Guangxi back then.
Gao Shouchang's heart pounded.
He is the first person in Dali, and he deserves to become the emperor of Dali by raising troops to seize power, which is a dream thing.
There is a day when I will never hesitate.
If he reaches an agreement with Li Fengwu, it will be tantamount to leaving a way out for himself in advance.
The voice was a little dry: "Why do you believe in this prime minister, if this prime minister is not mistaken, Li Yuanjun is only a secretary and a young eunuch in the court of Shangguo, he should be an official from the fifth grade, and he can influence the position of the emperor of Shangguo?" β
Li Fengwu laughed, his voice was full of confidence in the world, "In the first year of Longxing, in Jiankang, the official family summoned me, and I also resisted the decree three times, and finally was invited to Lin'an by Zhao Kai, the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and then the official family gave the Chengshi Lang to participate in the first test, and then sent an envoy to the Jin State, returned triumphantly, and in the following year, the high school science and technology explored the flowers, Xiangyang made great contributions, and was promoted to secretary and young eunuch. β
After a pause, he was arrogant, "Before this, I didn't need to be summoned to see the official family, the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, the close minister of the Son of Heaven, and the center, why did Xiangguo think?" β
Let me ask you, is this amount enough!
Gao Shouchang still knew about Li Fengwu, and what really shocked him was not the high school tanhua, nor the envoy to the Jin Kingdom, but Jiankang snatched the first beauty of Dajin from the hands of the two princes.
Young people with such abilities have a career trajectory that is indeed unlimited.
I was a little convinced. (To be continued.) )
